Former WWE Writer Recalls Night Stone Cold Steve Austin Almost Killed Jeff Jarrett Backstage

Vince Russo has a new blog on CSRWrestling.com presented by TagMeADate.com — first ever dating website for wrestling fans.

The former WWE writer recalls the night Stone Cold Steve Austin almost killed Jeff Jarrett backstage. 

The following is a sample:

In the years that I worked with Stone Cold, I actually witnessed him lose his temper twice—and unfortunately—I was on the other end of one of those near fatal ass whoopins’ ! But I’ll get to that in a minute. In order to lay out that near death experience, I need to set up a story that happened prior.

It is well documented that Jeff Jarrett was one of my good friends in the business–even though he won’t give me the right time of day today–but, that’s another story for another time, but any way, I was instrumental in bringing Jeff Jarrett back to the WWE, after he had left and gone down to WCW. The day of his return, I wrote an in-ring promo for Jeff, as I wrote all his in-ring promos. Jeff was just one of those guys that liked you to write his verbiage for him. After giving him his words, Jeff read through the promo and came back to me. Upon his return he said that everything was good, but that he was just going to add one little thing. During his promo he was just going to add in there a part about Austin’s use of 3:16, and how blasphemy Jeff felt that phrase was. He was also going to accuse Steve of using the Bible reference as a tool to strictly make money.
